Abstract
A system for sharing and presenting temporary contact information associated with a service personnel. When a user generates an order request, the system generates temporary data indicative of a contact name and a phone number associated with the service personnel. The system sends the temporary data to a media device of the user. The media device stores the temporary data in a secure storage and receives a communication from a service media device associated with the service personnel. The media device presents at least the contact name responsive to the communication. The media device after completion of the communication prevents access to the temporary data stored on the media device.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a display device;
- at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions, the memory including secure storage;
- and
- at least one processor in communication with the display device and the at least one memory, the at least one processor executes the computer-executable instructions to:
- receive, from another device, evanescent data comprising contact information including at least a contact name and a phone number associated with a service provider, and retention data indicative of a period of time that access to the evanescent data is allowed;
- store in the secure storage within the at least one memory the evanescent data and the retention data;
- determine receipt of an incoming call from the phone number associated with the service provider;
- access the evanescent data and the retention data from the secure storage;
- present, via the display device, the contact name of the service provider associated with the phone number;
- determine the period of time that access to the evanescent data is allowed, as specified by the retention data, has expired;
- and
- control access to the evanescent data from the secure storage based on determining the period of time has expired.
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a first device, evanescent data and retention data sent by a second device, the evanescent data indicative of contact information, the retention data indicative of parameters associated with a period of time that access to the evanescent data is allowed;
- storing the evanescent data and the retention data in secure storage of the first device;
- receiving a first communication from a source identifier indicated by the contact information;
- accessing the evanescent data and the retention data from the secure storage;
- presenting at least a portion of the evanescent data responsive to the first communication;
- determining accessibility of the evanescent data based on whether the parameters of the retention data exceed a threshold value;
- and
- controlling access to the at least a portion of the evanescent data based on the parameters exceeding the threshold value.
A system comprising:
- a first device with a hardware processor that executes instructions to:
- determine contact information associated with a source identifier;
- generate evanescent data indicative of the contact information;
- generate retention data indicative of parameters to control access to the evanescent data;
- send the evanescent data;
- and
- send the retention data;
- a second device with a hardware processor that executes instruction to:
- receive, from the first device, the evanescent data indicative of the contact information;
- receive, from the first device, the retention data indicative of the parameters to control access to the evanescent data;
- store the evanescent data and the retention data in secure storage;
- receive a communication from the source identifier indicated by the contact information;
- access the evanescent data and the retention data from the secure storage;
- generate data to present at least a portion of the evanescent data responsive to the communication;
- determine accessibility of the evanescent data based on whether the retention data indicative of the parameters exceeds a threshold value;
- and
- control access to the at least a portion of the evanescent data based on parameters exceeding the threshold value.
